Spider-Man, in his multi-armed red and gold Iron Spider suit, crouches in readiness on a freeway.

It's hard to say that the last scene of Spider-Man: No Way Home is the best one. There is more going on with the outfit than just a chance for the two companies to sell a slightly different Spider-Man figure.

The writers of No Way Home believe that. In a video interview with IGN, they were asked about the blue and red outfit Peter wears when he returns to New York City after asking Dr. Strange to erase him from everyone's memories. It is the most brightly colored iteration of the costume any Spider-Man has ever worn in the modern superhero movie era, and the tones of which McKenna believes could have come straight out of a comic book. He thinks the new suit indicates a different Peter and a different Spider-Man than we have seen before.

Peter would be a different person from where he started, because of everything he experiences and loses in the movie. Sommers likes the idea of Peter moving into a new phase of his life where he doesn't have the help of a Tony Stark.

This is a good thing. Spider-Man has always been best and most compelling as a plucky outsider, which was always narratively hampered by the arsenal of Iron Man tech available to him. The biggest problem of the Spider-Man prior to No Way Home was that he was almost exclusively in Tony Stark's shadow, preventing him from becoming the hero he should be. He is standing on his own two feet as a superhero.

It doesn't sound like Spidey's new suit will be devoid of goodies. Sommers said that time will tell what's in that suit. I think people can look forward to a different kind of suit and a different level of technology, but maybe Peter has something stashed away and it's full of gadgets. Who knows?

Kevin Feige, Sommers, and Amy Pascal know that a fourth Spider-Man movie is in the works. No Way Home is in theaters and will be released on March 22.
